8.6 Register Maps

Many of the registers in the DS280MB810 are divided into bit fields. This allows a single register to serve multiple purposes which may be unrelated. Often, configuring the DS280MB810 requires writing a bit field that makes up only part of a register value while leaving the remainder of the register value unchanged. The procedure for accomplishing this task is to read in the current value of the register to be written, modify only the desired bits in this value, and write the modified value back to the register. This sequence is commonly referred to as Read-Modify-Write. If the entire register is to be changed, rather than just a bit field within the register, it is not necessary to read in the current value of the register first.

Most register bits can be read or written to. However, some register bits are constrained to specific interface instructions.

Register bits can have the following interface constraints:

  • R - Read only
  • RW - Read/Write
  • RWSC - Read/Write, Self-Clearing
